Episode 244: Episode 244 - Hunt for the Wilderpeople (1:27:31)

We discuss Taika Waititi’s “Hunt for the Wilderpeople” with our old friend, Patrick MacFarlane of Liberty Weekly and the Libertarian Institute. Ricky is a defiant young city kid who finds himself on the run with his cantankerous foster uncle in the wild New Zealand bush.  A misadventure in the wilderness leads to life-changing discoveries for the troubled orphan teen from the city and his belligerent Uncle Hec.   A road movie and coming-of-age tale, Hunt for the Wilderpeople is consistently clever and even moving according to Roger Ebert’s website. This is a suggestion by my long-lost co-host Robert, so I am sure he will have plenty to say on this one. Join us next week for the return of Johnny Profita of Peddling Fiction as we get into the summer film, Point Break. Show notes:   http://www.actualanarchy.com/244 Presented by www.ActualAnarchy.com Robert and I analyze popular movies from a Rothbardian/Anarcho-Capitalist perspective. We use movies as a starting point for people who may not be familiar with this way of thinking.  Discussion of the plot and decisions that characters make in relation to morality and violations of the non-aggression principle are our bread and butter.  We also will highlight and discuss any themes or lessons from Austrian Economics that we can glean from the film.  The point is to show what anarchy actually is with instances that are presented in film.  We publish at least once per week; and occasionally will do specials surrounding holidays or events (elections/olympics) and have guests.  SUBSCRIBE, RATE AND REVIEW ON APPLE PODCASTS (or iTUNES)
